Immigration attorney David Berry discusses the status of the Deferred Action on Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program on the Trump administration's deadline for Congress to act. President Trump threatened to eliminate the program by March 5, but a federal court ruling blocked that action, and the U.S. Supreme Court declined to review it.

Berry is a founder of one of the world's largest immigration law firms, Berry Appleman & Leiden, based in San Francisco. He helps companies navigate the rules and regulations for employing immigrants. He is a frequent speaker on immigration and has provided testimony to the United States Commission to Reform Immigration.
